Owning a player like Pogba is like having a really super hot girlfriend who is out of your league and who has a flirtatious nature. You are constantly being told that she might go with another guy. Eventually you end up letting her go so you can relax with an average looking one with a good personality.

A word of caution. Real Madrid when they make their mind up always end up getting their man. They are transfer banned next season and what to make a massive signing this year - that could be Pogba.

You are telling us that we, Juventus, have to settle for average.

Can someone ban this man please? Make it permanent.

They dint get Ribery. Bayern told them to fark off even when they offered an insane sum. (€80M in 2009 would be like €150M today).
And i distinctly remember Ribery asked to leave initially.

Barcelona is very lucky that United does not deem Messi to be worthy of their prestigious club. Or else he would have been in Manchester 5 years ago.
You are joking, but I've seen a thread on redcafe about how they prefer martial to messi, like messi is past it and martial is gonna be as much as player very soon.

Its an analogy as a fan. Not saying we should settle. We must fight to keep him. Just a humerous analogy. Jeez, this forum is like the Gestapo! you can get banned for a throw away comment.

JSV fled Lazio because of the passport scandal. He never wanted to come to Manchester and 6 months after signing with us he was in Rome bitching of how ugly Manchester is and how these neanderthals expect registas to tackle.

SAF brought JSV because he underrated Paul Scholes as a CM and the ginger prince showed him how wrong he was in doing that. As I said in numerous occasions, PS was the best AMC in his era. Surely the likes of Zidane were more talented. However no one was as consistently good as PS
Hopefully Evra pushes him back in our direction.
Not sure about pogba, seems to have an 'artistic' temperament. Lot of money being touted and I think that we're probably being used to get him a big deal at Madrid. One thing, I was at the Ireland game and was impressed seeing him in the flesh for the first time, he had no problems with the physical stuff and was handing out some bruising stuff. He's def premier league ready, it's just a question of whether he'd fit in the team. I think matuidi would be a better signing
The last two players who went for a world record fee both moved at the age of 24, one is in his 9th year at the club and the other is also likely to spend his peak years playing there. Point is, Pogba's next move means he spends substantial amount of his peak years at the club he chooses. Choice when it comes to transfer is basically between us and Real Madrid. Comparing profile of both clubs there is only one winner here and it should be no surprise Pogba prefers a move there.

For some reason, Madrid aren't ready to fork out the required fee (yet). Pogba has to play the waiting game but he has to decide how long is he willing to do that? Post Euros? Maybe another year at Juventus even? In hope they come in and pay what's required next year. Or he could decide to devote his peak years in Manchester and make the switch now. Only way I could see us pulling this off is 1) Pogba must want to leave, staying at Juventus isn't an option for him anymore and 2) Madrid bow out of the race.
I'm not trying to belittle this club at all, i think Man Utd have the biggest fanbase of all clubs, it's a major club.

We have a chance if Real Madrid decides not to cough up the money. In that case Pogba could decide to come here and get a nice wage bump while being part of a great new team with a winning manager. I definitely think we have a chance, but it still depends on what Madrid does.
You make it sound like we're Swansea or something. Enough of this masochistic nonsense. We're top 3 of the biggest and richest clubs in the world just about every year, and there's absolutely nothing "deluded" about thinking a player might prefer us over Real or Barca - especially one who has lived in Manchester before and spoken highly of it.
not really read all this thread , but just wanted to ask, is there anybody else but me that thinks he is overrated and way to expensive?
Of course not and I hope we wont pay that kind of money for him. I personally do not believe that he will be so brilliant for us that he can bring us to the next level. He's more of a player that will evolve in a well functioning team that performs already
Ah, the Arsenal fan has a laugh at that, of course. We may not be close on the field (to Barca and Real), but we are very close off it. The romance is still here: players dream of playing for United, Barca, Bayern and Real. While I won't deny that the latter three clubs have the biggest lure, to suggest that it's laughable that a player would choose United over the aforementioned clubs is misguided, and screams of bitterness when it comes from an Arsenal fan.

Yeah he failed to acknowledge that Juve is that super charming and handsome guy that every hot girl dreams about and if it someday happens that the girl makes the mistake of imagining she can do better the guy just gets three new hot girls that are equally attractive.

"Biggest fanbase in the world"

"In top 3 biggest clubs in the world"
I love they fact they are starting to discuss if he's even good enough for them or if he is just overrated.

Must say though, that United need several players to be able to compete for the title, and spending so much on one player might not be the best idea, since it would harm them in other areas. Pogba is, already, better than each and every one of the midfielders they currently own.

Pogba is three times better than any player they had last season and would instantly be the best midfielder in their league. With him they'd have a very good change of challenging for the title, sadly for them Poggers is going nowhere this summer (maybe Ibiza but that's it).

This was a turning point for Munich imo. We need to pull a Ribery and tell Pogs to fuck off when he wants to leave. Do what we've done to Camo and Trez, but I'm afraid Beppe is too soft unfortunately.

Maybe Pogba wants to make things right with Man U and one up Ferguson by becoming a bigger United legend then him, and Beppe will understand and say : Go get 'em, son!

Sells for 150 mil + mata
